Promises Kept

He swore to protect the innocent. He never promised mercy to the men who prey on them.

Brody Connor has spent years building a life rooted in healing-a small hospital, a growing ranch, and a family held together by faith and loyalty. But when a wounded outlaw is dragged from his hospital bed in the dead of night and later found dumped in a gully, Brody realizes the bloodshed stalking Central Texas has found its way back to his door.

At first, Brody is determined to let the law handle the killers. Then the outlaws return to the Connor ranch and murder one of his ranch hands-a man loved like a brother. The attack leaves no doubt about their message: anyone under Brody Connor's roof is marked for death. The doctor who once fought to save lives now faces a choice no healer should ever have to make.

Guided by faith and bound by a promise to protect his own, Brody rides out to hunt the men responsible before they strike again. But deep in outlaw country, he discovers this is more than revenge. It is a reckoning, and the cost will be paid in blood.

Some promises are made with words. Others are kept with a gun.
